what do u torque the bolts down to on a oil pump in a 90 5.0 [patriot]

I have'nt ever seen torque specs for the oil pump. I usualy torque as tight as I can get. It's kindof a feel thing if you know what I meen.

if i recall correctly, theyre 9/16, 45-50 should be good, but good and tight and not broken with a standard ratchet has worked for me so far. dont forget the loctite

45 is correct for the oil pump mounting bolts. They are 3/8 thread. Header bolts work really well. Easier to get the wrench on. Never used a torque wrench on em though.
